Witcher 3 New DLC First Boss vs Maxed Out Geralt Meme
Dialogue
Overview
This is a two-panel humorous gaming meme centered on The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. The left panel depicts the popular Cheems Shiba Inu meme character edited to have large red dragon wings, captioned as the first boss of a new Witcher 3 DLC, representing the common trope of early DLC bosses seeming unassuming but being framed as a threat. The right panel shows an edited buff Cheems character dressed as Geralt of Rivia, loaded with absurdly overpowered extra gear including a lightsaber, rocket launcher, sniper rifle, standard witcher swords, and a hovering attack drone, captioned as the player's maxed out Geralt after 300 hours of gameplay. The joke highlights how players who invest hundreds of hours into open world RPGs become so overgeared that even new DLC bosses are trivial to defeat.
Origin notes
This meme was sourced from an RSS feed of the Reddit r/Meme subreddit, with the original post title referencing that players may even have 1000 hours of playtime instead of 300. It is a derivative work combining the popular Cheems Shiba Inu meme format with long-running jokes about overprepared players in The Witcher 3 community.
